is said Senator French is stock
holder. Senator French will be remembered
as the chairman of the Senate committee that
whitewashed the hospital trustees. The trustees
tried to put the ladder together and raise it, but
the thing fell over and knocked down part OF
the corner of the store house. They then
structed a $500 shed behind the store house
where the truck reposes. The truck and
ladders had been rejected by the Indianapolis
department previous to sale to the trustees of
the Indiana Hospital for the Insane. The report
of the embarrassing majority of the Senate in
vestigating committee and the minority report
of the House committee have been bound togeth-
er in a thick Damphlet at a cost of $l75 to the
State and are be distributed F. vindication
of the trustees. This is clearly in violation of
law

Out OF a discarded carpet of large size
enough that is bright and clean can often lie
got to make square or rug for the center OF
the room; then the floor around can he
stained with walnut or cherry stain. This
fashion of rug and stained floor is i'll every
way desirable in summer time 1t gives a
cool, refreshing, artistic appearance to the
room; it does away with the dust constantly
arising from an all over carpet, for the rug
can be taken out of the house and beaten
clean whenever necessary. Unfortunately
some floors are too rough and poor to lie
stained. III that case take the good parts OF
the old carpet To cover around the sides of the
floor and buy for the center of the room one
of the squares that come for that purpose.

patterns, promises to be the correct style" in
jewelry to wear with summer dresses. This
jewelry appears in both gold and silver, the

brooches and fancy pins, also in cuff buttons.
Much of it is all white though in some of the
flower pins appear tiny ansleIs or diamond

flower with thread of gold around the edge
OF the leaves, but, generally speaking, the
most attractive pins are the all white ones

KITCHEN PRESS

Much aid may be derived from the use Of a
simple lever press made on the principle Of a
lemon squeezer 1t requires two persons
however, to manage this--one to hold the
material in the bag or cloth and the other to
apply the pressure The cut here given shows
how the same press may be arranged to be
worked by one person. One of the halves OF
the press is hinged to a piece Of board two
feet long and fourteen inches wide, and set
upon a table with one end elevated in the
manner shown in the figure.
Such press win be found especially con-
venient among housewives who make their
own jelies and wines, as with its aid the
juice may be pressed without either unduly
firing or staining the hands.
